Hillarys fans in last nights debate audience got in the way of an honest debate

[xiamiam]

other candidates were booed for calling her out and the cheers for her were ridiculous...why cheer when a candidate boasts about what a great president they will be? ..i dont want to see another debate with hillary supporters drowning out the other candidates..how did they get to stock the audience in such a one sided way?

[Perry Logan]

1. So now the anti-Hillarites are bashing the audience as being too pro-Hillary. Guys--give it a rest.

[Richard Steele]

3. Looks like you got the same memo.

8. Exactly! The original poster & the people co-signing that B.S.

Just seem really salty that Sen. Clinton won the debate. They need to get over it.

10. Call the Waaaaaammmmmbulance!!

I'm sure we can find a guy to chase it...

16. .....

:evilgrin:

2. isn' that something?! I thought it was WOLF LESLIE BLITZER and his crowd of moderators the ones who

got in the way of an honest debate!

Are you sure you are not a CNN/WOLF BLITZER plant?

[xiamiam]

4. haha..not a straight answer yet...blame me blame blitzer..but not address the planted crowd ferver..

why am i not surprised?

[sufrommich]

9. Because there is no proof of a "planted crowd"?

[xiamiam]

13. perhaps planted isnt the word..but it was certainly a crowd skewed in her favor..a very vocal crowd

which got in the way..imo..and i personally dont think it should happen again...it was a mistake and now people think she won the debate because she had the most supporters in the crowd..that is simply not true...the crowd dictated ..by booing the others into toning down their responses..

5. Are you assuming that "honest debate" was the goal

of all the participants?

[xiamiam]

7. my preference is to hear the candidates speak..without fan fervor dictating..and for the record

i cant stand wolf so that was enough of an impediment

[durrrty libby]

6. Most debates are boring. The audience gave it some juice.

I enjoyed it

[Buns_of_Fire]

18. If they'd do it the way I've suggested, NONE of them would be boring!

You see, what you do is give every attendant one -- and ONLY one -- very, very ripe tomato. They can, at any time, throw it at any participant they wish. This includes the moderator(s).

At the end of the debate, the one who has enough tomato on them to make a decent lasagna is barred from all future debates.

Tomato Darwinism at its finest.

19. funny..best idea yet...would have had blitzetti last night..wolfie covered in marinara..nt

[gaiilonfong]

11. Maybe they weren't planted by I smell Wolfson aka Rove

I thought it was a circus that was allowed by CNN. Howard Wolfson Hillary's Rove made sure her supporters cheered and jeered, while that is free speech, it doesn't belong at a debate...IF...BIG IF ...Hillary wins this kind of nonsense will haunt her in the general.

[JTFrog]

12. I'm sure this is not unusual for debates, but it is the

only thing that really stood out to me.

A handpicked pool of about 100 undecided Nevada Democrats will occupy a special section of the audience, where CNN's Suzanne Malveaux will call on them to put their concerns directly to the candidates.

Who "handpicked" these folks?

14. For many of the volunteers, they have vested their belief systems

and personage into her campaign and take things very personal. It's a political game to win for them. People who want substance in the debate won't disappear however, and they had better grow a thick hide.

15. If You Don't Know Where A Candidate Stands By Now

then you're with a majority of the voters who will be going to the polls starting in January. These debates make for fun TV but little else. They've been a sham as they've turned selecting a person who could be the "most powerful person in the world" into a reality show. It's very little about real issues or in-depth discussions in actions and solutions...this is a contest, a game of who can get in the best soundbite, which cable bobblehead can get the best "gotcha", it's "yes or no" on complex issues...little substance and by design. It's all about the "anal-isis"...who won, who "looked presidential"...who "didn't stumble"...again nothing about the substance, all on the personality.

I love it when the audience mixes it up with candidates. This is what a real town hall is about. But that's not what these debates are...the audience is one step shy of those who attend a Jerry Springer show and by design...it "makes good TV"...and that's what all these debates are about. I doubt its really changing many minds...the ultimate decission is weeks away for most voters.
